Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the groundbreaking research conducted in the late 19th century on the resistance experienced by ships moving through water. The author meticulously details a series of experiments conducted with H.M.S. Greyhound, a full-sized ship, to measure and analyze the various factors contributing to resistance, including speed, trim, displacement, and the presence of bilge keels. Set against the backdrop of a burgeoning scientific understanding of fluid dynamics, the book explores the then-novel concept of stream-line motion and its impact on a ship's movement. The author investigates the interplay between theoretical principles and empirical observations, carefully examining the discrepancies and seeking explanations for unexpected results. A significant portion of the book is dedicated to testing and refining a proposed law of comparison, which aimed to predict the resistance of a full-sized ship based on the performance of a scale model. Through meticulous analysis and insightful interpretations, the book sheds light on the complex forces at play when a vessel traverses the water. The author's findings offer invaluable insights into optimizing ship design for improved efficiency and performance, contributing significantly to the advancement of naval architecture during a pivotal era of technological progress. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9780282116378_0
